Diskless tips - Part 2

1) In order to enable services like NFS mount and ypbind on the diskless clients edit the rc.local file in the image tree on the server like this: [ root@grid02]# more /diskless/centos44_diskless_ver_03/root/etc/rc.local #!/bin/sh # # This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts. # You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't # want to do the full Sys V style init stuff. touch /var/lock/subsys/local #--------added manually by Guy, 30/5/2007: mount -t nfs 192.168.1.2:/home /home ypdomainname WRITE_HERE_THE_DOMAIN_NAME ypbind ypset 192.168.1.2 2) In order to document the installation procedure, here is the files & directory structure on the server which is relevant for the pxe-boot & tftp stage: [root@grid02 ~]# ls /tftpboot/ linux-install [root@grid02 ~]# ls /tftpboot/linux-install/ centos44_diskless_ver_01 centos44_diskless_ver_03 pxelinux.0 centos44_diskless_ver_02 msgs pxelinux.cfg [root@grid02 ~]# ls /tftpboot
